Document background
The Conveyance Agreement is a fundamental legal instrument in Belgian property law, used whenever real property ownership needs to be transferred between parties. This document is essential for both residential and commercial property transactions in Belgium and must be drafted in compliance with the Belgian Civil Code and regional property regulations. The agreement typically includes detailed property descriptions, financial terms, warranties, and specific Belgian legal requirements such as energy performance certificates and soil certificates. A notable characteristic of Belgian property transfers is the mandatory involvement of a notary public, who must execute the final deed. The Conveyance Agreement serves as the foundation for the subsequent notarial deed and must include all material terms of the transaction while ensuring compliance with local registration requirements and tax obligations.
